Vietnam joins Asia Tech X Singapore 2023

A delegation from the Ministry of Public Security led by Deputy Minister Le Van Tuyen participated in Asia Tech X Singapore (ATxSG) that is taking place in Singapore from June 6-9.

Asia’s flagship tech event where technology intersects with society and the digital economy is organised by Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Informa Tech, and supported by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB).

Attending the roundtable on scams and AI governance, Deputy Minister of Public Security Tuyen delivered a speech themed international cooperation to build trust in the digital age, emphasising the increasing challenges of cybersecurity with more serious nature and severity. In particular, crime using high tech has increased with many new, sophisticated, and dangerous methods and tricks, directly affecting many areas of social life, and causing difficulties in prevention and control, he said.

Tuyen proposed solutions to effectively combat cybercrime, high-tech crime in general, and online fraud in particular in the coming time.

According to him, Vietnam and Singapore as well as countries in the region and around the world need to make efforts to promote the unity of awareness and action, especially in building common legal frameworks; and continue to maintain and expand international cooperation activities.

On the sidelines of the event, the Vietnamese delegation had a meeting with Chng Kai Fong, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Communications and Information of Singapore, visited the Vietnamese Embassy, had a working session with representatives from IMDA’s Personal Data Protection Council (PDPC).
